I have a very good care pro by the name of Sandra. Sandra has made my life a lot easier by the care she is giving my wife. Sometimes it's difficult to find a person that is compatible with the person they are caring for. Sandra fits the bill perfectly.
Since joining Home Instead Market Harborough, I've really appreciated the daily variety, the wonderful clients, and the excellent training (which is very good) I've also enjoyed getting to know the office team and participating in Wellness Wednesdays and meeting new clients families at events. Whenever I have an issue, I can talk to management, and they've always been kind and helpful. The staff are lovely, you can just pick up the phone and someone will help!
In over 1.5 years have not had any no shows for my parents. Very reliable and on time. Really worked with us on plan of care having to do with their long term care policy!

I would like to bring to your attention, what a tremendous asset Clare Lamden is to your business. I am a friend of Jane Wilsons , and I was so impressed with the care and compassion she showed Jane. On one of my visits to Jane, she was tidying and re-organising the bedroom and kitchen cupboards and drawers, to make it easier for Jane . She Would always ensure that Jane was given heartwarming , home cooked meals and would stay with her at all times , keeping her company and entertained. She even went to the length of dining and woollen items that needed repaired. To quote Jane.” she is my eyes and ears, and knows what I want and when I need it. I don’t know what I would do without her.” She made Jane feel safe . - Clare Cottle
We went to them on basis of personal recommendations and were so happy with the service they gave. They were kind and sympathetic. They get to know the individual and we had full trust in them. Home Instead’s model of home care has set the bar higher for everyone – it’s how it should be everywhere. Thank you for being there.
I have worked for Rugby Home Instead now for 3 years. The support I have received from day 1 has been above and beyond. I joined the company with no experience in care and have gone on to have been awarded my level 3 in health and social Care as well as my City in Guilds Dementia Care training. I can honestly say, i love my job!
Excellent interview process & companion choice for my mother. Adriana was the perfect person for my mom’s caregiver. Conscientious, kind & a good driver which is very important to my mom.
Kim has been doing an outstanding job at Lord Rosebery Lodge, providing exceptional care to one of our residents. Her kindness and friendly demeanor make a significant difference in the daily lives of those she assists. Kim's dedication and compassion truly stand out, and her hard work is greatly appreciated. Well done, Kim!
From the first moment I had a feeling of genuine, heartfelt care that Amanda from Home Instead had, she speaks from the heart and delivers what she promises. An amazing person to work with and delivers consistently high standards not just in her own work but that of the company as a whole.
I have worked for home instead, lytham, fylde and wyre for 5 years. It's a great company to work for. All the staff,carers and management, are fantastic! I wish I had started years earlier instead of working in offices!
Home Instead helped my mother regain her ability to live independently and they provided excellent and professional care during a difficult time. I called them late one night to leave a message after learning my mother was being discharged from a rehab facility to a nursing home because she wasn't progressing with walking or eating. I knew in my heart that my mother would be happier and would make progress if she could return to her own home but she would need 24-7 caregiving for a while. To my surprise, Kevin Ledgerwood answered the phone that night and met me the next day at my mother's home. Then, he went to the rehab facility to meet my mother and speak with the staff and assure them that Home Instead would provide caregiving immediately. Shelby Coffee carefully arranged caregiving schedules so there was no gap in coverage and she updated me often about my mother's condition and she made home visits multiple times a week. The caregivers went above and beyond, encouraging my mother to walk and eat and, under their kind and patient care, my mother regained strength and happiness. I highly recommend this awesome group of people. Laura V
I have worked for Home Instead Chichester for 2 months now and it is the nicest, friendliest place of work. The Care-Pros are amazing, our Client team are amazing, everybody in the office and out on the field go that extra mile to make you feel welcome and help in anyway they can. Lots of opportunities to develop, I can't fault them (Chichester GB)
We couldn’t have been happier with the service and care that we received. Tula in particular was a pleasure to have around at a very hard time. I would recommend Home Instead to anyone. All I ever wanted was for my Mother to pass away peacefully in her own home. This was only possible with Home Instead.
Home Instead have been a lifeline for us. I honestly don’t know what we would have done without them. In addition to the care they already provided we replaced the free ‘care’ provided after mum broke her hip with Home Instead as their carers are all wonderful, compassionate and efficient. The communication has been first class. Sandy and Vicky have been really helpful and Tina, Janet, Maxine, Theresa and Tracy are all lovely carers.
Home Instead Cambridge has been a crucial support for my mother for over a year. Despite living away, their excellent communication and the app provide me with a daily update on the caregivers' activities. After a disappointing experience with a previous provider, Home Instead has not only met but exceeded our expectations, restoring my faith in home care. We trust that, in the long term, Home Instead will continue to meet my mother's evolving needs, whether it's multiple daily visits or transitioning to live-in care.
Homeinstead Brentwood owned by claire.willoughbyat A terrific branch of the Homeinstead franchise group I can totally recommend working for them as a carer. I was very happy with kim.evansat as my manager. Any clients out there needing a live in or domiciliary carer send them an email you won't regret it.
My mother is supported by Home Instead. Although she was initially reluctant to agree that she needed care, she is now very happy and looks forward to her visits. Her carers are kind and supportive, and generally keep good notes which helps me to keep an eye on what is happening with her (she has dementia so is not able to tell me much about what has happened). The relatively new management has been excellent, and I have been listened to and concerns responded to quickly
